Hi, thanks for the quick reply! So, my model is a 2007 Modus, with a gasoline engine. As far as I know, nothing unusual was found at the last service, at 62370 km. You mean it could be the lambda sensor, okay, I'll check that out. Did the repair take a long time for you? Thanks again for your help!

Hey, no problem, that's what it's there for. Well, it took about a day to replace the lambda sensor in my Renault Scenic. Of course, the question is always how fast your garage is and whether they have the spare part in stock. So you can expect 1-2 days. The important thing is to get the problem fixed as quickly as possible before the catalytic converter is permanently damaged. Hope this helps you and let us know what you find out. Have a safe journey!

Hi, I had a similar problem with my Renault Scenic (built in 2005) and the same symptoms were present in my Clio (built in 2009). I only have a little experience with cars, but I checked with my garage and it was a fault with one of the lambda sensors. It cost me 375 euros. I hope that helps you a little. But to be able to say more precisely, I would need a bit more information about your car. What model is it exactly and which engine variant do you have?
